Compost Toffee

Cover a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat. Set aside.

In a large pot over high heat add the butter (make sure to use a large pot) and stir until melted. Clip a candy thermometer onto the edge of the pot, add both types of sugars, corn syrup and water. Stir continuously until it turns an amber color and hits 300 F on the candy thermometer. This process will take between 15 and 20 minutes from start to finish. When done, pour the mixture onto the baking sheet. Allow it to cool.

Add the chocolate to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir and repeat heating for additional 30 second increments until chocolate is melted. Pour melted chocolate over the cooled toffee and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle remaining ingredients evenly over the warm chocolate.

Allow to cool until set. Then cut into pieces.
